Oh, your poor appliances!
Our six gas and electric rate reductions
in the last five years mean they’ve taken some
big wage cuts.
-.. And their future doesn’t look any
brighter. Appliances will be working at these
lower rates again this year.
Except for bigger energy demands during winter, the only way your PG&E bill can
go up is when you add some new appliances
to your domestic staff. And then you're still
getting a bargain.
So use our energy and save yours.
youll be working for
ess again this year.
